It was about ten pm on a Friday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in The Woodlands and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this do happen. She managed to get the car into a protected position and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to arrive at her swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. A job in Suffolk well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :
Below are the top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Suffolk we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Call us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct every type of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite swiftly.
Remember though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of your premises with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial premises in Suffolk to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we could certainly empty it.
Out of Fuel Service
Out of fuel in The Woodlands (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They can also take care of the standard problems which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in The Woodlands
Reports from our own The Woodlands team:
We carried out a wrong fuel removal exercise outside a beautiful residence in The Woodlands a few weeks ago.

Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was quite late at night, and did a full fuel drain and cleanse on the Fiat .
Fuel Removal The Woodlands - The Woodlands Petrol in Diesel
A woman from The Woodlands with her kids in her diesel Peugeot had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Texaco station. She contacted us weeping and very upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and didn't know what might happen to her car . We assured her that the car should be okay and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
